This Paraguayan commemorative stamp, issued in 1969, honors the Centenary of the National Epic of 1864–1870 (the War of the Triple Alliance). It features vivid religious artwork depicting two scenes from the Passion of Christ:

• XIII: Jesús Bajado de la Cruz (Jesus taken down from the Cross)

• XIV: Jesús Puesto en el Sepulcro (Jesus laid in the Tomb).

Printed by Lito Nacional, Porto (Portugal), the design showcases the blend of religious devotion and national remembrance often present in Paraguayan philatelic issues of this era. With a face value of 0.75 Guaraníes, this issue appeals to collectors of both religious art on stamps and Latin American commemoratives.
